QR help codes
Point, scan, hear the answer.
Printable QR stickers for medication bottles, doors, appliances, and important paperwork. Your parent points the camera, and a warm voice explains what it is and what to do next.
What it does
Print. Stick. Point.
QR codes are free to make. The hard part is making the answer behind them actually useful. That's the MeMe Care part.
Medication bottles.
Scan the bottle, hear the label read aloud — dose, timing, warnings, and the pharmacist's notes.
The front door panel.
"Who is this at the door?" Scan a sticker on the intercom, hear the steps for answering safely.
Appliance panels.
Washing machine, dryer, microwave — scan the sticker near the controls, hear which button does what.

The app opens automatically to the right answer. No app-switching, no menu digging.
Why it matters
QR codes are free. The hard part is making them useful.
QR codes went mainstream during the pandemic — restaurant menus, vaccine passes, everything. But a QR code is just a pointer. What matters is what's on the other side. For older adults, the other side should always be "spoken in a warm voice, in plain language."
MeMe Care QR codes are managed from the family dashboard, so the content behind each sticker can update over time. Medication changes, thermostat gets replaced, new appliance arrives — the printed sticker stays, the answer behind it updates.
Because the answer is spoken, not written, it works even for someone whose eyes aren't what they were. Point, listen, decide.
Common questions.
Do I need expensive sticker paper?
Any inkjet or laser printer with regular label paper works. Family dashboard provides the PDF layout; the print looks the same no matter the paper.
Can I edit what a sticker says after printing?
Yes. The content behind each QR code is stored in MeMe Care, not in the printed code itself. Update the content; next scan shows the new answer.
What's the difference between QR codes and NFC tags?
QR codes are printed — free to produce at home. NFC tags are tiny chip stickers we mail you — faster (tap vs point-and-scan) but cost a few cents each. Most families use both.
Can someone else scan our QR code and see our information?
Each sticker is tied to your family account. If a stranger scans it, they see a generic "this QR code belongs to a MeMe Care family" page — no medication info, no personal details.
Will it work on an older iPhone?
QR scanning works on every iPhone from 2017 onward (iOS 11+). The MeMe Care app itself runs on iOS 15+.
